    Re: the silent downvoting: IMHO, it’s childish and worse than toadying as it’s both inherently cowardly and lacks any real effort at all. If I thought it would constructively improve the platform, I’d suggest a daily rationing of them, but what’s the point?

    edit: D’awww, the chickenshits took the time to click. That’s adorable.

      Many comments don’t deserve any effort beyond a downvote. Whether you like it or not, it’s how the system is designed to work.

      In this case I downvoted you for being a condescending piece of shit in your edit. Otherwise I probably would have ignored you and moved on.

        Sorry, kiddo, but that’s not “how the system is designed to work” (you’d know this if you actually read the community guidelines, rather than just wandering in and assuming it was Reddit 2.0), and instead is simply finding a similar fate that etymological morphology suffers at the hands of illiteracy.

        Swing and a miss. Next.

          We’ve got a linguistic prescriptivist here! Everyone come and look at the guy who’s sick of stuff shifting over time in response to community sentiment!

      It really is the embodiment of that old joke about people never wanting to hear other people’s opinions, and only wanting to hear their own opinion parroted back to them by someone passably eloquent.
